Scenario Suggestion Needed

[Billzabub]

Hey, all, I'm about to run Crypt of the Everflame for a new group, and as it's been noted on these forums, there is not enough xp in the module to bring PCs to third level where they need to be for the next adventure, Masks of the Living God. So, I'm thinking of running a PFS scenario in between to pull them up. Can anyone think of a good scenario that could be slotted between the two? Something that would be region and story appropriate?

You could run get the group up to 2nd-level before Crypt of the Everflame, e.g. by running:

Master of the Fallen Fortress
In Service to Lore
#1: Silent Tide

I forgot about Master of the Fallen Fortress, and I think I can work that in fairly easily.

Thanks, Paz

Actually, playing Fallen Fortress after Crypt of the Everflame would be anticlimactic. Besides the fact that I would have to increase the CR for the encounters (the party will be 2nd level leaving CotEF, there's a redundancy in monsters:

Spoiler:

Giant frogs, burning skeletons and bat swarms.

So, maybe I'll restock Fallen Fortress with different monsters. Or I could skip calculating xp, and have the players just level up to start Masks of the Living God. Technically, they'll be short on xp, even on the fastrack, but eh, GM's fiat.

Thanks, anyway.

I was momentarily confused, but I'm guessing you're not talking about GMing Pathfinder Society organised play here, are you...

...in which case, what you're suggesting sounds like a fine idea.

Ah, no, not official PFS play, although my group is considering it. I just posted here because I figured this was where I'd find the people most familiar with the scenarios.

Thanks, Paz

If you're playing Crypt of the Everflame using pretty core rules, you may as well register some PFS numbers for each person and take PFS credit for your characters so you don't have to start from level 1 on new characters.
